Sword Dual

But now they have to deal with this nonsense of a person standing in front of their destroyed temple with their minions and some kind of creature, attacking the people mercilessly. 

Even Hakl seemed baffled with what is happening but there is a hint of amusement in his eyes and that is annoying Sappire to no extent. That and the vague speeches of the person in front of them.

"Why did you destroy the temple?" Sappire asked, walking forward with his hand on the hilt of his sword. "Were you the one to attack my kingdom?" 

A loud laugh escaped the person, "Why would I attack your Kingdom? What would I gain from it? No. This is why I destroyed the temple." 

He took out a pink crystal from his pocket and held it out for the king to see, "Do you know what this is, your Majesty?" 

Sappire didn't answer as he watched the crystal glisten in her hand.
